  1. Keep telling yourself that, bud. So your argument is that Cuban is a dumb businessman? Do you understand how silly that sounds? He’s just another billionaire. I used to think differently of him back when i lived in Dallas 20+ years ago. I thought he was different, but he’s not.
  2. I absolutely knew of the Adelsons and I guarantee Cuban did, too. Even if for some very odd reason that he didn’t, he would have had a team that did due diligence on them before entering into business transaction with them. They are slimy businesspeople with highly questionable ethics and a well documented history. I’m not angry or irrational. I’m not a fan of the Mavs and think the NBA is boring so I don’t really have a dog in the fight from a sports loyalty perspective.
  3. Dude, he sold the team to the Adelsons, one of the shittiest families in the country. I don’t think Cuban is an unintelligent man, so that points to him knowing exactly who he was selling the team to.
  4. Why would he do that? He already bought the presidency.
  5. Feels like we would have heard about 830 sexual assaults over a single weekend before a post on Surly.
  6. Cuban knew exactly what he was doing. It’s not like the Adelsons are an unknown quantity. He’s just another greedy billionaire like the rest of them.
  7. Man, what a kick to the nuts for the Mavs fans and Luka to have to sit there and watch that knowing what the franchise did to them and him.
  8. Nobody goes there anymore, it’s too crowded.
  9. And you got assaulted by an orange man while the lights were off.
  10. I missed it where the tariffs on China are now 145% and not 125%.
  11. Rupar posts on Bluesky and the video has already been posted here via that platform. Get off of Twitter.
  12. No, quite the opposite. Derka owes us an apology for setting the tone in this shitass thread. He doomed it from the start.
  13. I had that same thought, but I think that was in the mid/late 90’s.
  14. Just when I thought this thread had moved on from tent talk.
  15. Pretty easy walk over to MDA from there. Just don’t get mowed down by a light rail train crossing Fannin.
  16. I bet a lot of that crew vacations in the Gulf Shores area.
  17. I don’t think that crew is big on European travel.
  18. Hadn’t heard of it until a couple of weeks ago when an acquaintance interviewed with them to be their GM. It’s owned by the same company as Sixty Vines and Mexican Sugar. My wife loves Sixty Vines and I think it’s decent, but we both thought Mexican Sugar was ass when we tried it. I’m sure we will end up checking Haywire out at some point after the guy we know starts there later this month.
  19. And, in an ironic turn of events, a “Made in China” sticker.
  20. Some quotes from administration officials speaking at a “Border Security Expo” in Phoenix attended by companies looking to profit off the mass deportations. These people see deportees as a profit center and Amazon packages. ICE director envisions Amazon-like mass deportation system: 'Prime, but with human beings'
  21. Sounds an awful lot like the evil CHIPS Act.
  22. Oh look, it’s Trump’s billionaire buddy and appointee to be the ambassador to Italy taking advantage of this market manipulation.
  23. And Abbott is fucking around not calling for an election until November. Could have held one as early as next month.
  24. Damn. I have a hard time with that. We’re talking about a 17 year old kid without a fully developed prefrontal cortex. If he’s found guilty, I think he needs to do time, but I don’t think you lock him up and throw away the key. To be honest, I don’t know what the right sentence is and I’m glad it’s not my job to make those types of decisions about people’s lives.
  25. I ate the steak salad there once a week for the better part of two years when I was either working in Denver or connecting through DIA.
